Good day Mr Goh

How about cashing in one of your property now at all time historic high price.

Thereafter both you and your wife is considered as holding 1 property each only.

Subsequently you and your mrs can invest in 2 more properties and register them separately , thus avoiding paying ABSD .

Please call me if i can serve your housing needs.

    hi joanne,

    cashing out is not a good idea when the rental returns is rather good for the condo we have. The main idea is to avoid the absd and buy another condo in my wife's name. I am only in my thirties so holding on to properties would be better than having cash. Buying in the current market would be a challenge especially as you have mentioned, prices are at historical highs
